The Raptors managed to keep up with the Lakers until halftime on Sunday, but things quickly went downhill from there. The Raptors fell victim to a painful 123-103 defeat at the hands of the Lakers. The loss unfortunately continues a disappointing trend for Toronto in their matchups with Los Angeles: they’ve now lost five in a row.
Meanwhile, the Bucks were within striking distance but couldn’t close the gap on Sunday as they fell 113-107 to the Celtics. The loss hurts even more since Milwaukee was up 49-32 with 9:16 left in the second.
Despite the defeat, the Bucks got top-tier performance from Giannis Antetokounmpo, who dropped a double-double on 43 points and 13 rebounds. What’s more, Antetokounmpo also posted a 50% three-point shooting accuracy, which is the highest he’s posted since back in March.
The Bucks struggled to get the ball back on offense and finished the game with only five offensive rebounds. That’s the fewest offensive rebounds they’ve posted since back in April.
